Probably the easiest would be to check the server.log file.  For
example, a "grep 'use count' server.log" on my system shows the
following as the last 4 lines:

2006-06-02 12:20:22 INFO   Server Session use count is now 1
2006-06-02 12:21:06 INFO   Server Session use count is now 0
2006-06-02 12:21:08 INFO   Server Cabe session use count is now 1
2006-06-02 12:21:17 INFO   Server Cabe session use count is now 0

If I then start 2 dclerks, the following lines appear with grep:

2006-06-02 12:35:34 INFO   Server Session use count is now 1
2006-06-02 12:35:47 INFO   Server Session use count is now 2
